Tulip Photo contest

Last year I entered a photo contest for the local news paper. The pictures had to have tulips, in honor of the Tulip Festival, and the winner got their picture printed in the news paper. Unfortunately I didn't win, actually I didn't even get close to first.

But it was still fun to go out to the tulip fields with Jake, take pictures, decide what picture to enter, and watch the voting.

This is the picture I entered in the 2009 contest. I really like this picture.

A lot of the pictures that were entered last year, and so far this year, have been edited in one way or another. My entry was 100% original. No editing at all. I think it should have won...but I guess I am a little biased.

On my birthday this year Jake took me to the tulip fields, and even though I didn't feel very good I got a few pictures and posted them on facebook. Trena, my sister-in-law asked if there was another photo contest. I looked it up on line and sure enough there is!

I am very excited to announce that I have entered a photo into the 2010 Tulip Photo Contest. And I hope that this will be my first of many photos that get published.

This years entry. Titled: One in a million.

Here is the website for the contest... http://goskagit.upickem.net/engine/welcome.aspx

Check it out. Look at the pictures. Make a profile. And vote Saturday May 1st to Sunday May 9th.

My fingers are crossed that this year I win!
